lithium\template\helper\Form::$_templateMap
Maps method names to template string names, allowing the default template strings to be set permanently on a per-method basis.
For example, if all text input fields should be wrapped in <span />
tags, you can configure
the template string mappings per the following:
$this->form->config(['templates' => [
'text' => '<span><input type="text" name="{:name}"{:options} /></span>'
]]);
Alternatively, you can re-map one type as another. This is useful if, for example, you include your own helper with custom form template strings which do not match the default template string names.
// Renders all password fields as text fields
$this->form->config(['templates' => ['password' => 'text']]);
